A GOVERNMENT agency is launching an inquiry into doctors’ reports that up to 50 babies a year are born alive after botched National Health Service abortions.

The investigation, by the Confidential Enquiry into Maternal and Child Health (CEMACH), comes amid growing unease among clinicians over a legal ambiguity that could see them being charged with infanticide.

NI_MPU(‘middle’);The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, which regulates methods of abortion, has also mounted its own investigation.

Its guidelines say that babies aborted after more than 21 weeks and six days of gestation should have their hearts stopped by an injection of potassium chloride before being delivered. In practice, few doctors are willing or able to perform the delicate procedure.

I just read the article and was going to post here as well.

That people allow this in the first place is horrible, but if you think about it…that there is not outrage about this is simply horrific.

Why is this not condemded by the media more?

Sadly, that answer is that the media contributes constantly to this dumbing down process.

Why else are they quiet about it?
 
Why can’t those mothers go into induced labor and give their premies up for adoption? :confused: It’s not like it would be any harder on the mothers–emotionally or physically–and at least those babies would have a fighting chance… 😦
 
Unfortunately I have witnessed this first hand. I was working in medical records in a hospital that had an ob/gyn who had gotten very wealthy doing abortions (he was a catholic, by the way). He got a call while he was working on charts, apparently from the ob unit, and after a few seconds he said “you mean the d— thing is still living?” I was so angry, I left the room before I got myself into real trouble. And it was also sad to see how many repeat patients there were. Abortion, for them, was a form of birth control.

No doubt because it would be so tragic to not be raised by their own birth mothers. Really, I’ve heard these people rationalize it that way… 😦

You mean that all people who get abortions aren’t victims of rape and incest? ( :rolleyes: sarcasm)

More tragic than being dead, huh?

Seriously the anti-life crowd never ceases to amaze me. It’s like everyone’s shocked that these babies have a will to live, and fight to survive. Why will they never get it? :nope:
 
Some years ago I read about the incidence of babies being born alive and then left to die. It is tragic, yes. Totally heartbreaking. But it does not surprise me in the least that there isn’t outrage. First, the mainstream media would never discuss something like this. And second, if there is outrage, then the “other side” is admitting, at least to an extent, that these babies are humans with real souls, feelings, pain, and death.

Oh, how horrible :crying: :crying: If the doctor was a Catholic maybe you should have called his parish priest or let the Bishop know what he was doing.
